Chapter 265: Bringing Her Back, the Shock of Purple Lightning and Purple You
"Um, I'm very grateful to you for saving me, but I'm curious, do we know each other?"
Just then, the Purple-haired Thunder Finch saved by Wu Yidao appeared behind him and asked timidly.
It was quite a feat for an Immortal King Peak to act so timidly, but anyone would likely behave the same way after seeing someone effortlessly insta-kill three beings as powerful as themselves.
Hearing this, Wu Yidao turned around and spoke to her softly.
"We don't know each other. It's just that I'm on good terms with a powerful expert from your Purple Feathered Thunder Falcon Clan, and I couldn't stand by and watch."
"Oh, I see. Let me introduce myself. Fellow Daoist, you may call me Zi Qian. May I ask how I should address you?"
Zi Qian breathed a sigh of relief upon hearing Wu Yidao's words and spoke hurriedly.
"You may call me Fellow Daoist Wu. Let's go; this place isn't safe to stay for long. I'll take you back first."
Wu Yidao spoke with a solemn expression. Zi Qian nodded earnestly, and under Wu Yidao's lead, they rushed back toward the Purple Feathered Thunder Falcon Clan.
Meanwhile, at a place on Mount Buzhou shrouded in light, this was the territory of the Holy Light Eagle Clan.
Inside the Soul Lamp Hall of the Holy Light Eagle Clan, three cracking sounds rang out in succession. The Hall Master of the Soul Lamp Hall opened his eyes, and upon seeing this, his expression became incredibly ugly.
"Damn it! Another Yao Race tribe actually dared to strike at the Immortal Kings of my Holy Light Eagle Clan!"
With that, the Hall Master of the Soul Lamp Hall flew directly out of the Holy Light Eagle Clan, heading straight for the place where the three Holy Light Eagles Wu Yidao killed had fallen.
On the other side, after taking Zi Qian with him, Wu Yidao did not dare to slack off. He exerted his full strength to rush back to the Purple Feathered Thunder Falcon Clan, returning before long.
After all, he knew that if nothing unexpected happened, the Holy Light Eagle Clan would surely send powerful experts soon. Those were three Immortal King Peaks; the Holy Light Eagle Clan would never just sit by and do nothing.
Meanwhile, within the Purple Feathered Thunder Falcon Clan, just as Purple Lightning and Purple You were about to discuss the issue regarding the strange beasts, Purple You sensed something and her brow furrowed.
"Why is he back already?"
"Sister, what do you mean?"
Purple Lightning was somewhat confused.
Hearing this, Purple You sighed and said,
"That Human Race man from before has returned. Eh, wait, Zi Qian is with him."
Purple You's expression changed. In the next second, with a wave of her hand, she brought Wu Yidao and Zi Qian directly before her.
Both Wu Yidao and Zi Qian clearly hadn't reacted yet; their expressions were still full of surprise when they were brought over, but they relaxed upon seeing Purple Lightning and Purple You.
"Fellow Daoist Wu, what is going on?"
Purple Lightning asked with some confusion.
Before Wu Yidao could explain, Zi Qian, standing beside him, couldn't help but say indignantly,
"Clan Chief, Elder Purple Lightning, let me explain. I was attacked by the Holy Light Eagle Clan on my way back. Fortunately, Fellow Daoist Wu was passing by, otherwise I would have been killed by them."
"What! The audacious Holy Light Eagle Clan actually dared to move against my Purple Feathered Thunder Falcon Clan!"
Purple Lightning's face was filled with rage. One must know that the Purple Feathered Thunder Falcon Clan and the Holy Light Eagle Clan had a long-standing grudge. Now that the Holy Light Eagle Clan had attacked Zi Qian, Purple Lightning couldn't hold back. Just as he was about to say something, Purple You spoke.
Purple You's face was calm as she said slowly,
"Enough, it is fine as long as you are safe. As for the Holy Light Eagle Clan, my Purple Feathered Thunder Falcon Clan will have a final battle with them sooner or later. For now, what's most important is: how did the task I assigned you go?"
"Eh, Sister, did you send Zi Qian to do something?"
Purple Lightning's face showed some surprise; he was clearly curious as he hadn't known about this.
Zi Qian also remembered the task and said hurriedly,
"Clan Chief, I have already made the inquiry. The Bai Ze Clan says that those are not creatures of the Upper Realm."
"Bai Ze?"
Hearing Zi Qian's words, Wu Yidao and Purple Lightning's faces were full of surprise. It was clear both knew of the Bai Ze's existence.
Hearing this, Purple You's expression became extremely solemn. If the creatures that attacked her Purple Feathered Thunder Falcon Clan were not beings of the Upper Realm, then this matter would likely be troublesome.
"Sister, did you send Zi Qian to the Bai Ze Clan earlier to consult on the information regarding the creatures that attacked our Purple Feathered Thunder Falcon Clan?"
Purple Lightning looked at Purple You, his tone also becoming solemn.
Hearing this, Purple You nodded. She first glanced at Wu Yidao before slowly saying,
"This matter is of great importance to my Purple Feathered Thunder Falcon Clan. I believe it must be investigated thoroughly."
At this moment, Wu Yidao spoke up.
"I'm quite curious. Rumors say the Bai Ze Clan has the ability to see through everything and perform divinations. So I'm wondering, what kind of creature could even the Bai Ze Clan fail to see through?"
"Fellow Daoist Wu, this matter is of great importance. I hope you will not spread word of it."
Purple Lightning looked at Wu Yidao and cupped his hands in a bow.
Wu Yidao nodded.
"I naturally wouldn't be so bored as to leak news of another clan. I'm just curious."
Seeing Wu Yidao nod, Purple Lightning first glanced at Purple You, then reached out and summoned a corpse from his internal world. It was indeed the creature that had previously attacked the Purple Feathered Thunder Falcon Clan.
Upon seeing that creature, Wu Yidao's expression also became incredibly solemn. As the Saint of the Chaotic Sacred Ground, he naturally had an extremely deep understanding of the various species in the Upper Realm. But now, he had encountered a creature he didn't recognize; things were starting to get interesting.
"This kind of creature carries none of the Karma of the Upper Realm. Even when attempting divination, there is simply no way to start; it's as if they appeared out of thin air."
Purple You said with a heavy expression. For someone with her Immortal Emperor level cultivation to be unable to deduce the opponent's origin was truly inconceivable.
Hearing this, Wu Yidao pondered for a moment. Soon, a flash of insight struck him, as if he had remembered something, and his expression became extremely grave.
"You say this creature does not belong to the Upper Realm… then is it possible that these are beings from outside the Upper Realm?"
Hearing Wu Yidao's words, the three of them—Purple You and the others—exchanged looks, seeing the shock in each other's eyes.
Indeed, there was such a possibility, though it seemed unlikely.
"Fellow Daoist Wu, why do you say that?"
Purple Lightning looked at Wu Yidao and spoke in a serious tone.
Wu Yidao lowered his head in thought for a moment before looking up and sighing.
"Fellow Daoist Purple, you should remember that I told you earlier I came to Mount Buzhou because of a certain matter, right?"
Hearing this, the memory quickly surfaced in Purple Lightning's mind, and he said with some alarm,
"So, Fellow Daoist Wu, you came here specifically for this matter?"
"No, not for this matter, but… also for this matter."
